Honestly, hair color does not matter too much to me. For all we know a Sindarian could have blonde hair while another could have black. It really does not matter as it is not a pivital moment of any Tolkien's work. I have yet to read a story that relays on whether some person has blonde hair. And if he didn't the Orc would eat him.
Legolas was essentially a thug, a sharp shooter for the Fellowship. I suppose that is what Tolkien did not give him much discription.
